Broncos Vs. Warriors - Build Up Thread

[azza79]

I seem to remember hearing quite a while ago that Izzy is a good goal kicker too. Not sure if it was on here or not that I heard it and have never seen him kick - has anyone else ever heard this??

 

[Coxy]

I think the conclusion is that everybody except maybe Anderson and Kenny could've done a better job than Norman at that kick! LOL

But lay off the kid, it was game 2, he'll learn from that experience.

Yeah Big Izzy hits them very sweetly

 

[Charmamba]

no one trust my link do they? lol

 

[Kimlo]

Yes Izzy was very good when he was kicking at Melbourne, don't know why they gave it back to Smith who is the worst goal kicker in the game. I was furious that they gave it to Norman... WHY! As others have said there's at least 5 much better options.

Still though no way Norman should have missed I don't care what pressure you're under it was practically under the post. Reminds me of Geyer missing that goal in the 2006 grand final. I think it made a difference, 16-18 one penalty our way we could of took 2 points and leveled it. I'm not blaming Norman though, I'm blaming who ever decided Norman should kick.

Poor Norman would of felt sad and embarrassed after missing it.

That could still change because IIRC, Maloney has pleaded not guilty at the judiciary

I don't get why Hohaia is playing fullback for them when Locke is clearly a better option IMO

SHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

broncos team?

 

[Charmamba]

Same as last week. Setu to the bench. Glenn to the 13.

How many kicks did Izzy even take? A handful maybe?

 

[Big Pete]

No, McKinnon is not.

Hohaia has been fairly impressive at the back so far this season.

 

[Meat77]

No, McKinnon is not.

Hohaia has been fairly impressive at the back so far this season.

He's a good player but Locke is a natural fullback. Cleary is as good a coach as he was a player I think...

 

[Big Pete]

Yes, but I'd much rather having both of them in the side as opposed to having Locke at fullback and Ah Van on the wing.

 

[Meat77]

So why don't they play Hohaia in the halves instead of Moon? Oh wait, try that next week and leave Moon in for this one!!

 

[Big Pete]

Because Hohaia is ineffective in the halves.

I'm guessing they had the team list prepared yesterday, hence why Parker has been named. Either that or Parker will be playing on 1 leg.
